Upscale department store Fortnum & Mason has long been associated with fine food. Now the store is doing even more to bring culinary delights to Londoners. Opening on 31st March, the Piccadilly store's third floor has been transformed into an experiential food hub offering exciting events and experiences, named the Food & Drink Studio.  

Customers will be able to take part in a range of gourmet events including supper clubs, cooking masterclasses and workshops, demonstrations, and chef's table experiences with both established and up-and-coming names. The third floor will also be home to the store's test kitchen where its team of 100 chefs will concoct new recipes for the store's restaurants.  

As well as the food hub, the third floor will be the setting for a distillery crafting two original gins, a cook shop, and a bookshop where you'll find plenty of inspiration for getting in the kitchen. You'll also be able to order hampers or create your own with help from the knowledgeable Fortnums team. You can even customise the look of your hamper to create a showstopping gift. Let's not forget that all of this is in addition to the food hall and the range of eateries already on the premises, cementing Fortnum & Mason's reputation as the home of gourmet treats in the capital.
